Post CAT 3116 Air Filter


I'm preparing to tackle my first oil change and was going to do the air filters as well. When I go to the CAT parts site and enter the air filter part number (7W-5040) I see the filter, but I'm not seeing the outer foam filter. Does anyone know if that comes with the air filter, or do I need to purchase that separately? I'm struggling to find a part number for it.

The ones currently on the engine are probably 30 years old and seem brittle. Thanks!

Post Twin pleasurecraft 302 water pump orientation


I cant find an answer to this dilemma. A friend removed port side water pump, I’m replacing, not marked up or down, a sherwood G21 pump. Put it in the same as the starboard engine, engine rotation is left for port and right for starboard. Did I put it in opposite? Also, the impeller roasted. Thru hull is open. There was water flowing in the sea strainer at first..either i put it in backward, it’s defective or there was an air leak, what else? Mostly wondering if it should be opposite of th ...

Post QL BP1200 Voltage 12v vs 24v


I have a 2003 Carver 506 with a QL BP1200 bow thruster. I have had the boat for about two years now and have found the bow thruster to often be intermittent in operation. Often when I use it, I have to toggle the switch multiple times to get the thruster to run. I haven't had a lot of experience with bow thrusters on boats this size, but I have also always felt the thruster to be underpowered when it does operate. After getting caught in a cross wind with a flakey bow thruster last week, I f ...

Post 2003 Carver 466 and the Great Loop


I am looking at purchasing a boat for the Greal Loop and one that has caught my eye is a 2003 Carver 466. My concern is bridge clearance. I wondered if anyone has completed the Loop in the 466. The specs say Bridge clearance is 19.5' and the bridge south of Chicago is 19' 1" so I am a little concerned. it does not appear there is any easy way to hinge the arch on this boat. The Champlain Route is even lower and although this would be a route i may never take i was also interested in if anyone ha ...
